From the original uploader.

JEMS could not be more thrilled to release this significant upgrade of the second show at the Capitol Theatre, one night removed from the historic radio broadcast that would go on to become one of, if not the most bootlegged recordings in Springsteen history, Piece De Resistance. In homage to that bootleg classic, we’ve titled the upgraded second night Douceur de Vivre, which translates to “the sweetness of life.”

And how sweet this set is, with a looser vibe than that of its predecessor and a few key set-list changes, including “It’s My Life,” the first “Santa Claus” since December 1975 and the rare-but-always-welcome coupling of “Incident on 57th Street” directly into “Rosalita.”

We’re fortunate to have many excellent recordings from Springsteen’s greatest tour, among them the five radio broadcasts (now including the upgraded Atlanta pre-FM JEMS released last year) and numerous other soundboard tapes such as those from Portland (June 24) and Charleston, WV (August 4). What makes Douceur de Vivre so special is that it, like the radio broadcast the night before, was professionally recorded on reel to reel by a mobile recording truck outside the theatre.

What we get is a live-as-it-happened recording of incredible clarity: If you ever wanted to learn the individual parts each band member is playing, this is the tape for you. Which isn’t to say that it is a multi-track, mixdown recording; this is a raw, mixed-on-the-fly, wide stereo recording done on 1/2 track at 15 inches per second. Compared to the cassette sources circulating of other raw board tapes from this tour, the quality here should be a revelation. A 24/96 edition will be forthcoming. Samples provided.

The transfer was handled as JEMS did for last year’s upgrade of The Ties That Bind so I’ll quote those notes: “There was baking involved, as the tapes had degraded in the [33 years that had passed]. This time, the reel-to-reel tape deck was best of breed, what the pros use, in a proper studio, calibrated and adjusted in every way for optimal playback and capture at 24/96 using the best possible sound card, cabling, etc.”

There are two missing pieces on the new reels, at the start of “Tenth Avenue Freeze-out” and the end of “Twist and Shout.” We’ve patched those from the video soundtrack. On the bright side, “Thunder Road,” “Jungleland” and “Incident on 57th Street” are all complete here unlike the circulating board tape.

Review from Brian Heffler:
Back cover In my opinion, this is one of the best sounding 70’s CD Boots I have ever heard. Moreover, the B&W Photo graphics on the covers are excellent.

Notes from Art Siegel:
This boot seems to be straight from the [out of print] Van Morrison In Ireland commercial video.

Comments from original uploader:
While I don’t appreciate Godfather’s work on most of their releases; this bootleg is my favorite source for the outstanding “Oh Mercy” outtakes. I think they managed to reduce the hiss, without ruining the music – unlike so many other times. The versions here differ from the released versions – to bigger and lesser extent.

REMASTER By Captain Acid March 2012

Hi friends,
I love this original album so much, I just had to make this acetate sound better.
I have fixed the phase problem and did some EQ.
Mostly by adding bass and cutting some high frequencies.
I also did some level correction and that was all.
Ah Yes, and I manually declicked vinyl pops, on the last track on album.
It was just so annoying and the song has lot of quiet parts so I had to do it.
It`s much better now.
I am quite happy how it sound now.
I have adopted the artwork too.
Enjoy,
Captain Acid March 2012

Shadowman Original Notes:
Firstly, the sound quality of this show (and the 16 songs) are much better quality than heard on bootlegs such as
‘Got Satisfaction…If You Want!’, ‘Beat Beat Beat’ etc.

This is an hour long documentary taped by me from BBC Radio 1 on Saturday 30th November 1985 called ‘The Stones At The Beeb’.

It was a show presented by the DJ Andy Peebles and was part of a series of ‘At The Beeb’ The shows broadcast including The Beatles, David Bowie, Marc Bolan and Elton John.

It contains 16 complete songs (although the show fades out 2120 South Michigan Avenue) As well as interviews with Brian Jones and Mick Jagger from 1965 and 1985 interviews with Bill Wyman.

I believe the above recording/broadcast dates and show names are correct.

Alternatives are as follows:
~ Rhythm & Blues, Camden Theatre – recorded 19-3-64, broadcast 9-5-64
(This show is introduced by Long John Baldry as ‘Rhythm & Blues’
not ‘Blues In Rhythm’ as per Felix Aeppli’s website and various bootlegs)

~ Joe Loss Show – recorded 10-4-64, broadcast 9-5-64
(Felix Aeppli’s website says this is Recorded April 13, 1964;
originally broadcast in ‘Saturday Club’, April 18, 1964
but this ‘Stones At The Beeb’ show indicates it was on the ‘Joe Loss Show’)

~ Saturday Club – recorded 1-3-65, broadcast 6-3-65
(Felix Aeppli’s website calls this the “Top Gear” show
but 6 March 1965 was a Saturday and ‘Top Gear’ I believe was broadcast on a Thursday evening)

~ Yeh! Yeh! – recorded 20-8-65, broadcast 30-8-65
(some of this show was also broadcast on “Saturday Club” on September 18, 1965)

Because the cassette tape I originally recorded this on back in 1985 was a 90 minute tape it meant that after 45 minutes I had to turn over the tape to keep recording. Therefore I missed a few seconds of the 1965 interview between Tony Hall and Mick Jagger from the ‘Yeh! Yeh!’ show. So I have used those missing few seconds from another source.
Enjoy!

New Notes:
Thanks goes out to original uploader “Shadowman” for sharing this rare gem
with some really interesting interviews included as a bonus.
This bootleg CD was also available back in 1986 on a 2 LP vinyl bootleg titled “Stones At The Beep”.
Unlike other copies of this show – with this one “Shadowman” has provided us with the Whole One Hour Documentary including the Bill Wyman 1985 interviews and a couple of other interviews.

Much Respect “Shadowman” and appreciation for sharing this rare copy of The Stones At The Beeb 1985 with us. Original FFP, Original Wave File Report, EAC Log Files, New MD5, Original Art Work, Original Info File and new Rich Text Document with new notes included.
